Chess is a game filled with many talented players. In this post, we wanted to highlight the top chess players in Canada. We hope that more youth and adults get involved in chess in our wonderful country. These players are role models and dedicated individuals, with distinct backgrounds and experiences with the game. These players exemplify the nature of Canada, diverse with different cultures. Chess has often been a way for different people to communicate with each other and connect. While the chess board can be filled with interest, we can want to take a step back and look at who's playing the game.
